While I was renewing my Craigslist postings for the gravel bike, I had to laugh remembering when Liebermann and Flunky both said that the Optima was a road bike. It must feel awful to always be wrong and those two always set the record.

Nice advertisement in RBT. You forgot to post the URL: <https://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/bik/d/san-leandro-cannondale-optima-gravel/7721599119.html>
No need to thank me.
Why are you (again) hiding the right side of the bicycle where the
drive train would be visible? It's almost as if you were doing that
on purpose to hide something.
BTW, I've never posted anything about your Cannondale Optima being a
gravel or road bicycle. I expect you to feel awful for making such a grievous mistake.

same here, Tom's penchant of disproving statements we never made is
comical. I just did a search on the word 'optima'. He's mentioned the
bike a few times but I never commented on it.
IOW - just another typical lie from tommy. But, he's right on one thing,
he must feel awful to always be wrong and have us always set the record straight.

Let alone that Cannondale Optimo is a road race bike. Typo one assumes.

Still on rims at least now, older models did have cable operated brakes, which those are Avid BB7 the red adjusters being big giveaway ie mechanical no hydraulics even mechanical operated.
Their Gravel bikes are the Topstone and always have been.

No, it's not a typo. Tom, as usual, is wrong, and on top of that he's
lying about me commenting on it.
I never wrote anything - one way or the other - about the Cdale Optimo
until now.
What he actually has listed is a 2005 cyclocross bike.
https://vintagecannondale.com/year/2005/2005.pdf
Refer to page 46
Tom's bike has the identical color and decal scheme as the Cyclocross
Optimo Disc model. The difference is that he (or someone) replaced the original straight leg fork with a more traditional curved fork, Probably
one of those cheap chinese carbon Kinesis forks.
He must feel awful to always be wrong and have me and Jeff always set

For the current vintage, you're correct,the Optimo is a road bike. As
far as I can find, Cdale never made a gravel bike under the Optimo
model. Remember though that Optimo is a tubing/material name, not a
specific model. Cdale has offered Optimo frames under a variety of
different models over the years.

Holding one job forever is a really bad sign. It means you're not wanted by anyone and you have to hold on to what you have. You and Flunky are perfect examples and Liebermann deminstrates WHY.
It's called "rationalization"
I had a lot of jobs and I think I'm a wonderful person, thus having a
lot of jobs is wonderful!

I believe that the discs are enclosed mechanically actuated hydraulics.
When you pull the brakes the disk does not move over to one side like a
pure mechanical brake does. And they are a bit large for pure mechanical.
And actualtion is smooth and very powerful. The mechanical discs I used before were none of those.
